Check what Kodi version you run and if your device is 32 bit or 64 bit

To see the version of Kodi click on Xenon Plus > System info -other builds have it in Settings:

Whether your device is 32 or 64 bit depends on the CPU of your device.
Eg FireOS is 32 bit -like firestick 4k and cube, almost all Amazon devices except 2 ancient ones, that's why in Amazon Kodi topic it only mentions 32 bit.
Shield tube is 32 bit, but Shield pro is 64 bit.

32 bit only devices can't even install 64 bit Kodi -or other apps.
In 64 bit devices you can install 32 bit apps like Kodi etc, but they will be slower, and all 64 bit only apps that the 32 bit app will have as dependencies won't work.

It's easy to look up your device specs in trusted specification sites to see what you should use.
You may use this or similar apps to see if your android device is 32 or 64 bit.
